This website is about family history. What we want to do is tell the story of our family. Of course we collect names, dates, and other genealogical facts, but our primary mission is to construct a narrative. Beyond the names and the associated dates are stories of people who lived, loved, suffered, laughed, fought, worked, traveled, and sustained themselves. Unfortunately, we have lost many of the details of our ancestor's story. All we can do is search and find clues that will help us construct our family's narrative.
